QB's (Clausen left before Kelly could ruin him)...Weis recruited Rees first and Crist
RB's: both Wood and Riddick were Weis players
WR's: Floyd left after '11 (Tate left early like Clausen)
OLine...Weis left a lot of good players including Z Martin, Golic Jr, Watt, and Cave
TE...Rudolph (left after '11) and Eifert
Te'o...obviously, Motta, KLM...lots of good players and leaders

Weis played a full strength USC(and well coached no matter how much we can't stand Carroll)...Kelly played a very bad USC program and benefitted from it.



Willingham didn't even leave Weis a cupboard for year 3.

Let alone an empty one.

And Kelly went unranked and 8-5 his first two seasons

Freeman had a better first year than Kelly’s first two, with top 20/25 talent

A top 10 team? In what poll? *
